Return of Cesc

[Japan Shaking All Over]

This story has been taking up a lot of space on the transfer speculation tread and has divided GW down the middle in terms of those in favour and those not. . .

I for one, would welcome his return. I think it would up,the quality of our midfield but we cant ignore that money is needed in other areas, most notably up front and a DM with a strong phyical presence.

There is an argument to be had over whether he would come back to,a stronger or weaker team, when he left when we had Nasri and RvP but he never played wth the RvP we saw at the end and not for a full season. Nasri, we dont miss and for me doesnt deserve consideration.

The return of Cesc, the addition of Jovetic and a DM like Capoue would be great summer. . .but I doubt we have enough to cover all that

So what to do?

[Ollie the Optimist]

he would improve our team a lot, it would makes other clubs sit up and take notice of us because we will have signed a world class player, it would be a huge signing, and he is premiership expereinced.

there are no good reasons as to why we shouldnt resign him, especially given we have a buyback clause of 20-25 million apparently

My money is on you calling him a Judas Manc **** by the time the transfer window closes.

i dont think he would go there, you see whta he puts on twitter, instragram, he still likes us and tweets etc about us. plus united cant afford him. for barca to get their 25 million back, cesc would cost united 50 million

[I_Killed_Kenny]

if he is available then its a must get. without doubt. as Ollie said, it also raises our profile again

People may say we already have the likes of jack, santi, sosicky etc. but underneath than who have we got? fuckall really. so if we get cesc then our back up will be one of those 3 mentioned. cant be a bad thing surely? generally improves the quality of our squad when you have a strong bench too.

also allows people like santi and jack to be rotated. santi looked quite tired come end of season having played all our prem games but we dont have enough quality to take him out of the side. having cesc eases that burden and in my opinion we would be stupid not to take him back!

A poll would be fitting.

[Syn]

He is a quality player who is more suited to this league. I'm a little wary of building the team around him because I don't think he's quite good enough for that. But as an individual player he is excellent and we would do very well to get him back here. I don't think he wants to leave Barcelona though.

Can I still do that once thread has started?

[LDG]

Ideal signing for me.

Not sure about us regular members, but a mod can sort it out if requested.
